What is on CM today is on par with what we did for FreeXperia, the kernel has a builtin recovery. You'll see instructions on this soon when nightlies start to hit.

As for CDMA, I am not aware what the differences are. I support a CDMA device (desire-cdma) but it is a PITA since I have no real way to test. What would be good is if someone steps up and tried to maintain a play-cdma port, I imagine the differences would be fairly minimal.
[Xperia Play Android Development] Mills00013:
Awesome. The only reason I asked is because of how its different from other devices. The kernel always has to be flashed with fastboot. So I just didn't know how the updates would work or anything like that. I assume we just flash one to start the process and go downhill from there.

I agree completely. It appears that the kernel was working fine, there is just something in the CM build that was preventing the radio from working correctly. Logcat was telling me that it detected a CDMA mode and enabled it but then the phone module would crash. It was late when I started looking into it though and didn't do a lot of research, but I imagine that someone has encountered this with a CDMA port from a GSM cousin before. I'll do some more investigation this evening.
[Xperia Play Android Development] deovferreira:
The boot will always have to be flashed separately using fastboot due to the way the sony ericsson bootloaders transforms the boot image on flashing. System updates will be done using the recovery, as usual. At some point the kernel and system may get out of sync, the symptom would be wifi failing to enable, at which point people would have to flash a new kernel.

As for CDMA, the RIL libraries should be different as should some settings in build.prop.
[Xperia Play Android Development] Mills00013:
Awesome. I'll see what I can do this evening, and maybe even pump out a working build from the source for CDMA users.
[Xperia Play Android Development] Bin4ry:
Guys, stay calm. :D

this is FreeXperia CM7 "just" as official CM :)

So that is what you all wanted.

We worked over some time now with Diogo, all of us 3 ( Diogo, jerpela and me) have commited our changes, put them together and worked together.

All will be good ;) See it as a surprise :P

I'm working for over 1 month now everyday on camera support. For now nothing new, but new knowledge :P

currently i'm looking into camera for new 4.x Firmware release, maybe SE changed something in a good way for us...

Hey.

Thank you everyone who contributed to this . One question. Once this rom becomes an official cm7 and everything - on the website and everything. Will the rom be slightly different from the one on this forum? Or will the first nightly on the cyan website be the same as the one they have over here as of this time?
[Xperia Play Android Development] NeoandGeo:
I can't really be an early work beta tester for the rom, but once we get to a point where the radio works with bugs here and there to be cleared up I will be willing to give it a go and report my findings and bug reports.
[Xperia Play Android Development] Mills00013:
I'll be a tester, no questions asked. Thank you so much for looking into this.

[Xperia Play Android Development] crono141:
That doesn't look like a play to me, and all his "proof" is too blurry to see.

But check out the other freexperia thread. They have a version that runs on the play, with everything but the Camera working.

You won't be able to use any Sony Ericsson-Specific Widgets with Cyanogenmod, as it is not an Android Modified by Sony Ericsson.

[Xperia Play Android Development] Mills00013:
Thanks for the heads up!

Now is the r800x specific stuff going to be merged back into the CM7 tree officially like the rest of the xperia line? Or are we gonna be a seperate branch?

Will there be a Detailed guide for Noobies like me how to install/run CynanogenMOD?

i dont know how to use FlashTool :(
[Xperia Play Android Development] Mills00013:
Cat, the rom isn't ready for prime time. That's not saying not to try it, but if your not comfortable enough to the point you need a guide, chances are this is not where you want to be. Once the rom becomes stable and has its bugs worked out, I have no doubt that many people will write guides, myself included.

Good official news. Can't wait for this
[Galaxy Tab General] TarjeiB:
Didn't make too much sense to me - 1024x768 screen? The tab is 1024x600 now, and I can't see samsung going 4:3, all the devices are currently 16:9.
[Galaxy Tab General] manekineko:
Yeah, really weird. Seems like 1280x800 would have made so much more sense. Same resolution all the other Honeycomb tabs run, and 720p HD playback.
[Galaxy Tab General] pendevous:
Agreed with this. It would also make sense if they upgraded the the display to amoled instead of the pixels. Even a processor upgrade would be good.
[Galaxy Tab General] Katavic:
I was thinking the same thing and I looked a bit more into it, and it seems that 1024x768 can be 16:9, a qoute from wiki

"An array of 1024×768 on a 16:9 display has rectangular pixels."

So, it seems that they are sticking with 16:9. Great news for me
[Galaxy Tab General] minkiux:
Did you know what that implies?

mmm... the tab 10.1 is blocked now by Apple in Australia... any danger of these tabs being blocked by Apple here in the US?

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hobbes2099:
I'm trying out the new GB release on my x10i and I'm really enjoying it.

Not sure if I'll stay with it because of all the bloatware and CM7 feels faster in general.

What I miss most is the Power Bar in the Notification Bar. It's by far the best and it even allows for fast 2G/3G switching.

Is there an app in the market that compares? The closest thing I've found is the Power Widget which

a) is a widget on the desktop, so I would have to hit the Home Button to use it, then come back to the app I was using; and

b) doesn't toggle between 2G and 3G, but instead sends you to the options menu.

Any suggestions are welcome.

[HTC Sensation] RaDeN305:
Umm, the ROM being discussed in this thread is just a Sense based ROM with Sense stuff removed. It's not a pure Android ROM either.

Like he said, you can download any of the ROMs currently out there and run the NoSense script and you basically have the same thing. AOSP ROMs will be out eventually which is what we really want.
[HTC Sensation] matistight:
I really shouldn't post anything...
[HTC Sensation] matistight:
But what I'm saying is the same as the OP. Only roms are being made sense with no script. It would be nicebto have pure android, no themes. Yes with time, but people keep pushing sense. I hate cyanogen roms. I don't understand why people use it. Though it is stable. But I'd use it so I can actually free up my ram....sense just rapes the limited(but rather large) ram.

Prerequisites: Adobe Photoshop, Android Phone, Download and Extract "Bootanimation Setup"

https://www.sugarsync.com/pf/D6913056_8382954_648643

1. Download "Root Explorer" from the Android Market and allow SuperUser access

2. Open the application and go to system->customize->resource->and locate the file that says "bootanimation.zip"

3. On the top of the screen, there should read a toggle that says "Mount R/W". Click it, to where it says "Mount R/O". (Turns on the option to write to your Root)

4. Copy your current bootanimation to your computer. (We're going to use it as a template)

5. Now put this aside for a while. Copy the "Export Layers to Files - (Fast PNG version)" script to C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS5\Presets\Scripts

6. Get a .gif or .avi file and open it with Adobe Photoshop. (Make sure it is the final copy of what you want and must have a frame size of 540X960)

7. Now in Photoshop, go to, File->Scripts->Export Layers to Files(Fast PNG)

8. Locate the file you downloaded earlier to your computer from your phone. Extract it and go into the "android" folder.

9. Go to wherever you saved the exported layers, and rename every frame with accordance the frames in the "android" folder so it matches.

10. Put all the renamed frames in the "android" folder and delete the old ones.

11. Use WinRar to zip them up again. BUT DO NOT COMPRESS THE .ZIP FILE, OTHERWISE THE PHONE WILL NOT RECOGNIZE IT. It compreses by default, make sure you untick that option.

12. Go back to your phone and locate the old "bootanimation.zip" and rename it to "bootanimation.bak". (To back it up in case of bootloop)

13. Copy the the new "bootanimation.zip" into the same location as your original bootanimation and reboot phone.

14. Enjoy!!
[HTC Sensation] nxt:
ahh thanks, didn't know the zip had to be uncompressed. I was having issues. Thanks!
[HTC Sensation] halla29:
ive never seen this done before but can we use videos as bootanimations?

[HTC Sensation] Knucklessg1:
I will update this tutorial on Saturday with adding sound and the settings file. Please hold on till then. But for now look for a text file, don't remember it off the top of my head. But if you open it, you can edit the file a change the frames per second, and amount of times it repeats. But the higher the amount, the more it lags during the first play. But like I said, wait until Saturday!

OK, thanks, will wait.

I had no issues removing the files and they no longer show up on the phone, but neither the sync software or the phone recognize that there is any free space available.

Is their specific roms for my phone it can I use any? Can I save my current Rom and settings? I'm a newer member and can't find anything in the crowded search results.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] PMGRANDS:
S-ON is a Security feature that a lot of the Newer phones come with to Prevent the user from Rooting their device!

To have Full Root Capabilities you will have to use whatever methods available for your phone to get your Bootloader S-OFF!

Having Root is basically Gaining Total Control of your phone and certain features you Probably Wouldn't have otherwise!

And having Root Would Not Remove your current Firmware!

To get a Different Rom means to Almost turn your phone into a Different phone. Android Development is Constant on XDA meaning a New feature your phone Doesn't come with Stock, may be available through Flashing a Custom Rom!

Yes you can Save your Current Firmware through what's called a Nandroid Backup!

Every phone has its Own Roms, if you Search the Wiki Section on a Desktop,or Laptop you'll find a bunch of phones listed and Probably a Better Understanding of what can be Accomplished with a Rooted phone!

I Hope this Helps...

[Defy General] Sigma47:
So, I am new to the defy community, not android though, and I have a question(s) regarding ROM manager and 2nd init. I installed ROM manager and its basically worthless on my phone because all of the recovery functionality is thrown off by 2nd init. For example when I go to ROM manager and select reboot to recovery, the phone reboots to the factory recovery not CWM: there is no blue LED on reboot to select boot option after this either. This is frustrating. Is it normal behavior for a phone that has 2nd init or is there a way to fix it so that ROM manager works on the defy as it should? Thanks in advance!
